Can't clear the Noise in Maya 2018 Arnold Renderer

Anonymous — Tue, 16 Apr 2019 18:11:20 GMT

Hi there, I tried to remove the noise by giving high samples to light and as well as increasing the rendering samples of the project, but can't remove the Noise. Basically the scene includes a night shot, with to many lights including Directional light, SkyDome light, Mesh lights, Incandescent lights, Photometric lights & Spot lights. I have tried to increase the samples of the light but can't get rid of the Noise. It took me to render more then 8 hours to render a single frame(it is a still shot btw) on a i7 (don't have a Graphic Card, either would have used the Denoiser). I have given the project link ( https://drive.google.com/open?id=1UkbyDBn2ZbxCCUIeLFme5NAONLq17WFO ), please help me ASAP. {I want to learn how to use the AOV's can anyone give me a perfect link of How to use the AOV's in Maya 2018.}

*Adjustments, Have used the settings for the following image(Ray Depth- Diffuse-7, Specular -7)*Not rendered the full image

Hi @Anonymous

Solid Angle has documentation on this here!

This also has a basic flow chart for removing noise that should help.

I have tried that out but haven't got good results. Can you check the project file( https://drive.google.com/open?id=1UkbyDBn2ZbxCCUIeLFme5NAONLq17WFO ), if that is done correctly or not. I'm a self learner, no one to guide, please help me with that.

Thank You.

Hi!

1. Decrease file size (about 1.5 GB !?). I doubt that everything of this scene is needed just to check one shadow.

2. Use a compression format or algorithm that can be opened by more people.

This will increase your chance for getting help with this issue.

Hi @Anonymous

There seem to be some restrictions on the files/references that prevent me from rendering with it.

Also, you can check out this video for some tips with AOVs.

You can also try increasing the Camera AA resolution past 10 by typing in a value like 11, 12 etc and while it will increase render times significantly it may help remove this bit of noise.

I don't have a Graphic Card, but the documentation helped and the rendering time has also increased. Thank You.
